Partnership with Emma Hope

This past summer I met with Emma Hope, a pediatric cancer patient that I had been paired with for an event.

 

Ateam Ministries here in Birmingham, hosts a fund raiser each February called Heart 2 Heart.   They have local artist who partner with these pediatric cancer patients, for a creating partnership. We meet and work on a project together. The artists then create their own painting. The finished projects will be auctioned off at the even in February.

 

She was 5 years old when I met her, full of energy and life with a beautiful smile. We met at my home, worked for several hours on her project.

 

 

 

We did a lot of creating during that visit.

 

This was my painting that I was showing Emma Hope as she was leaving…

She had told me when we first met that she wanted to do something that had princesses, horses and butterflies in it. and PINK…. she loves pink….

 

So, my painting mirrored her loves…

Now, with the paintings done, interview behind us… we wait for February 6, for the big night. She told me that she and her mom were going shopping soon to find the perfect dress for her to wear! I know she will look like a real princess that night.

Now, she is 6 years old and has gotten a great report from the doctor with clear scans. So we are thankful she is doing so well and look forward to her bright future.

Linked with Sunday Sketches here this week. Go check out the other pages when you have a minute.

Have a wonderful new week!!

Love,
